Touristen in Cruz del Condor, Colca Canyon, Peru - Stock-Fotografie

Cruz Del Condor, Colca Canyon, Peru: Cruz del Condor is a popular tourist stop to view the Andean condor. At this point the canyon floor is 1,200 metres (3,900 ft) below the rim of the canyon. This place was originally called Chacllacruz yet it is now known by the title of “Cruz del Condor” (Condor’s Cross) for two reasons: one, for the flyovers performed in this area by this famous Andean bird, especially in the morning, and two, because of the stone cross built overtop a striking stone promontory.
